Description

Fuchs TITAN GEAR HYP LD 80W-90 is a synthetic gear oil for commercial vehicle axles, developed for the MB 235.20 specification. The maker cites improved thermal stability.

It meets API GL-5, API MT-1 and SAE J2360. Official approvals: MB 235.20, DTFR 12B110, MAN 342 Type M3, DDC 93K219.02, EvoBus 26.000-032, EvoBus 26.000-034, Scania STO 1:0, Volvo 97321, John Deere JDM J11E, ZF TE-ML 05A, ZF TE-ML 12L, ZF TE-ML 12M, ZF TE-ML 16B, ZF TE-ML 17B, ZF TE-ML 19B and ZF TE-ML 21A. Without formal approval, the maker recommends it where MIL-PRF-2105E, Mack GO-J, Meritor O-76-D or ZF TE-ML 07A is required.

Pack sizes: 20, 205 and 1000 litres.

Application

Axles and hypoid gears in trucks and buses, Mercedes-Benz above all, where an oil approved to MB 235.20 or rated API GL-5 is specified.

Worth knowing

Among Fuchs oils of the 80W-90 grade, the axle codes decide the choice here. Of the three such oils in the catalogue, only this one holds DTFR 12B110, MB 235.20, MAN 342 Type M3 and Volvo 97321, whereas TITAN SUPERGEAR MC 80W-90 has DTFR 12B100 and MAN 342 Type M2, and TITAN SUPERGEAR 80W-90 has MAN 342 Type M2 and ZF TE-ML 12E. The codes shared with the MC, such as ZF TE-ML 12L, 12M and 19B and Scania STO 1:0, make no difference; which unit each sheet belongs to is shown in the article on how to read MAN, Mercedes-Benz and DTFR codes.

For the gearbox the entries are different. API MT-1 applies to non-synchromesh gearboxes in trucks and buses and does not cover the requirements of synchromesh car gearboxes, and of these three oils MAN 341 Type Z2, Scania STO 1:1 G and ZF TE-ML 02B appear only in SUPERGEAR MC. Beyond the codes, Fuchs claims a fuel-saving potential for HYP LD, but gives no figures for this claim, either on the oil’s page or in the product catalogue.
